Chapter 290: Agreed Plan
Facing Wen Yi and Mrs. Zhongli's confused gazes, Luo Mingmin and Jiang Yao's expressions seemed to be even more confused: "What's wrong?" Is there something wrong? "But what's missing?"
Wen Yi retracted her gaze a little sneeringly, lowered her head and cleared her throat. Mrs. Zhongli smiled and said, "There's nothing wrong with it, it's just a little surprised, Miss Jiang is really a cool person." ”
Jiang Yao's face flushed, lowered his head, and whispered: "I'm also anxious, my father is still in danger......
Mrs. Zhongli smiled and took her hand and patted it gently: "Miss Jiang, don't worry, as long as Prince Zheng's Mansion doesn't find out that Lord Jiang has any disobedience, he will not kill him." They want to stabilize the officials and people in Qingzhou and Jinnan, and they can't rely only on swords and guns. When our people contact Master Jiang, they will definitely rescue him safely. When Miss Jiang's father and daughter are reunited, Master Jiang has also made great contributions, and there will be a good life in the future, so what kind of background and relatives are just a little grinding. Master Jiang is on the rise, and Miss Jiang will be more satisfied, isn't it? ”
Jiang Yao's face flushed slightly, and she responded with a calm smile: "I accept your good words." ”
Mrs. Zhongli smiled a little deeper, politely said goodbye to Wen Yi and Jiang Yao, and called Luo Mingmin, who looked a little confused, to go out and get in the car. Wen Yi hurriedly sent out the door all the way.
When Luo Mingmin and his entourage left the Yangliver Hutong, they did not go far, but turned into a nearby alley, and got out of the car in front of an inconspicuous house. When the two of them arrived at the inverted room in the front yard, there were already three or four men whispering around a map, and when they heard their footsteps, one of them looked back and looked soft: "How?" Did the daughter of the Jiang family agree? ”
Mrs. Zhongli smiled and nodded: "Fortunately, I am not dishonored." This Miss Jiang is a cool person. Husband, if we can succeed this time, we can remember the Jiang family's father and daughter. ”
Luo Mingmin also smiled and said: "Miss Jiang not only promised to let us borrow the name of her family, but also sent a close family member to introduce us to us, and described the appearance and characteristics of the cronies and servants around Jiang Zhizhou, so that we can easily recognize people." She also promised to write a handwritten letter, plus a few gifts, in the name of giving birthday gifts, so that we could justifiably enter the Yamen of Jinnan Zhizhou. ”
The man showed joy: "With such a great goodness in this name, it is impossible for the ears and eyes of King Zheng's Mansion to find out that we already know their plans, and it will be much easier to inquire about their movements in the future." It's just that the people sent must act cautiously, none of us can say for sure whether Zheng Wangfu plans to start an incident this autumn, if they want to delay for a year or two, we will have to lurk for a few more days, but we can't show flaws and make them suspicious of Jiang Muxi, which will not only damage the overall situation, but also affect Jiang Muxi. ”
Another person next to him hurriedly responded: "There will never be such a thing, our brothers are all old, how can such a mistake be made?" But another person was a little worried: "Whether it is Qingzhou or Jinnan Prefecture, it is clear that King Zheng has something wrong, but no official has reported it, is it the same as King Zheng's mansion, or has he been restrained by the other party or even killed by the other party?" This matter has to be guarded against. If only the officials in Qingzhou are fine, there is a garrison in Jinnan, but there is no difference in the Zhizhou Yamen, will this Jiang Muxi have fallen to King Zheng's side? If this is the case, will our people not be sheep in the mouth of the tiger when they pass by? ”
Luo Mingmin hurriedly said: "If he has already fallen to King Zheng, how can he send a secret letter?" ”
"Maybe he changed his mind after he sent it out? Brother Luo, it's not that I'm too careful, in the past two months, Jinnan Prefecture has not seen anything unusual, and the folds sent to Beijing some time ago are just ordinary invitations to the folds, and I don't see him mentioning the matter of King Zheng's Mansion in the compromise. ”
Mrs. Zhongli said: "This is also no way, he is just a five-grade Zhizhou, and those sent to Beijing are all Ming folds, if he mentions a little bit in the excerpt, I am afraid that before the excerpt leaves Jinnan, he has already been poisoned." ”
The man hurriedly said: "I naturally understand this, I just think that he can make some tricks in the fold......"
Luo Mingmin gave him a blank look: "Who knows who found out he was playing tricks?" Although he knows how to write secret letters, he is just an ordinary official after all, so don't be too harsh. You can't think of such a good idea yourself, and you asked Zheng Wangfu to intercept the letters that a few brothers exchanged for their lives, so why are you angry with irrelevant people? ”
The man shut up in a daze, and Luo Mingmin said to the man surnamed Zhongli again: "Senator, I think Jiang Zhizhou is still credible, he sent a secret letter out that day, and it has been nearly two months now, if he really threw himself into King Zheng, he could have sent his family to secretly inform his daughter, don't leak the news, but he has no intention of doing so, it can be seen that he intends to let his daughter report the news and expose King Zheng's conspiracy." As for his appearance on the surface...... Miss Jiang had mentioned that her father was not rigid in personality, and if King Zheng coerced and lured, perhaps he would agree to it in his mouth and wait for an opportunity to act in private. In this way, it seems that he would rather pretend to surrender to that King Zheng, at least in this way, others are alive, and their actions will not be restricted, and it will be much easier for our people to do things after they pass. ”
Senator Zhongli nodded: "This is reasonable. Then let's send a few people with good skills to enter the Zhizhou Yamen in the name of the Jiang family's servants to find out, and if he is credible, it will not be too late to arrange the rest of the matter. It would have been better if he had been willing to cooperate with Siri's plan. But we should not bet our hopes on him alone, and we must thoroughly investigate all the officials in Qingzhou and Jinnan who are originally from the capital or the surrounding towns and villages, and try our best to convince their families to cover our actions. These officials and dependents all live near the capital, and if there is any change, it is also convenient to control it, and if they meet those who have surrendered to King Zheng, they can also be held hostage by these family members to force those officials to confess their sins and obey orders. ”
Luo Mingmin hurriedly said: "Senator, Jiang Zhizhou is there, let me take someone there, right?" ”
Senator Zhongli was stunned: "You? Why is that? Your duty is in Dongping Mansion, if it weren't for the fact that the daughter of the Jiang family was borrowing your hand to send the news, there would be no need for you to come forward this time. ”
Luo Mingmin said: "It is precisely because Miss Jiang asked me for help that the secret letter was passed out, and she was willing to cooperate with Sizhong's plan, and it was also because she trusted me that I wanted to go through this experience, otherwise, if Master Jiang had a good one, wouldn't it be my sin?" Over there in Dongping Mansion, there are too many people who can use it, and there is no shortage of me. I have been to Qingzhou before, and I am very familiar with the road population, and there are Luo family members there, so it is not difficult to get out if you really encounter danger. My lord, I'm the best person to go. ”
Senator Zhongli hesitated, and Luo Mingmin's words also made some sense. The manpower that was originally familiar with Qingzhou and Jinnan has been damaged a lot, Luo Mingmin went, at least there was the convenience of the Luo family and the business firm, but the disadvantages of sending him there were also very obvious: "I'm afraid that if you go to Qingzhou, and there are clansmen there, you will be recognized." You must know that the person who went back this time borrowed the name of the Jiang family's servant."
Luo Mingmin was about to say more, but Senator Zhongli raised his hand to stop him: "I know you're worried about your father, but the matter has come to this point, and you should focus on the overall situation." Rest assured, this change in Qingzhou, he is at most responsible for negligence, and there is no big mistake, as long as the matter is resolved smoothly, it is just a punishment. ”
Luo Mingmin scratched his hair: "My lord, I really want to help." I don't believe that with my father's prudence and personal arrangement, someone would betray the General Administration. ”
Senator Zhongli frowned, and thought for a while before saying, "You better wait for the news with peace of mind." Although there is no movement in Dongping Mansion for the time being, Jiang Muxi mentioned in the letter that King Dongping had sent someone to contact King Zheng, and we should not take it lightly. Dongping is much closer to the capital, but if there is a little change, the capital will soon be able to detect it, maybe we can still find out about the plan of Qingzhou Mansion from the Dongping Palace. No matter how familiar you are with Qingzhou, you are even more familiar with Dongping, and you have always been responsible for these things. ”
Speaking of this, Luo Mingmin could only give up, feeling a little depressed. Mrs. Zhongli smiled secretly and comforted him, "Why worry? This time, it's just a matter of sending someone to make contact. As long as there is no problem with Lord Jiang, the servant who gave the gift will naturally come back, and the Jiang family will have to send someone again after that. If he can't break the plot of King Zheng's mansion within a year and a half, I'm afraid that the General Administration Department will have to cooperate with Master Jiang for more time. When the time comes, are you still afraid that you won't have a chance to contribute? ”
Luo Mingmin thought about it, smiled, and stopped mentioning it.
After discussing the personnel to be sent and making a statute of conduct, Mrs. Zhongli said, "We need to contact Miss Jiang, and it is inconvenient. Even if Liu Yiren can take her home, Brother Luo will come to the door, and outsiders will inevitably gossip when they see her. Brother Liu is fighting for the country, and his wife is helping the political secretary, if it affects her reputation, isn't it our sin? ”
Luo Mingmin hurriedly said: "I was also worried about this, so I didn't go to his door for nothing." They already know their wives, so why don't you come forward in the future? ”
Mrs. Zhongli shook her head and said, "My husband has now turned the darkness into light and has become a serious counselor of the General Political Department, and I occasionally socialize with people outside, although those people have no personal relationship with me, they also know what my family does, and they are more vigilant. If I come forward and go to the Liu family a lot, if someone recognizes who I am, how can outsiders not be suspicious? I don't have to take tired Liu Yiren. ”
When they heard this, they were troubled. Luo Mingmin has a way: "What's so difficult about this? The houses on both sides of the Liu family's house are also quiet, I bought it in the name of someone else, opened a small door, moved a few trustworthy people, and wanted to meet Miss Jiang in the future, so I first asked the Liu family brothers and sisters to take people over to live, and then under the pretext that it was a neighbor's visit, I invited someone to come over for tea, which neither alarmed outsiders nor aroused the suspicion of the Liu family. When this matter is over, I will 'buy' this house in my own name, only saying that I plan to become a family in the future, and become neighbors with my friends, so that I can go back and forth every day. Then no one can gossip. ”
Senator Zhongli approved this method and said, "The Sili brothers have families and no fixed residence, so they can help." Luo Mingmin was about to run errands immediately, but Mrs. Zhongli only said that she wanted to help with the details, and when she went out of the house with him, she stopped him and smiled: "Brother Luo, I see that Miss Jiang is at a young age, and it seems that she has not yet decided to marry, I wonder if you are interested in marrying?" ”
Luo Mingmin was taken aback: "What does Mrs. Zhongli mean by this?" I don't have that kind of mind."
Mrs. Zhongli glanced at him: "What a fool is now in a good marriage, you don't have the mind, when will it take to marry a daughter-in-law?" Let me tell you, in the future, you still want to marry a woman who knows your identity and can still be trusted, but it is not easy, you should cherish it."
Luo Mingmin grabbed his hair and said with a dry smile: "You are too worried, this marriage is a big deal...... Parents at home will refer to ......"
Mrs. Zhongli snorted coldly: "Ling Zun doesn't dare to make his own opinions, for fear that Ling Tang will choose the wrong person." Don't blame me for speaking politely, so that Zunben has the opportunity to go further, but because of the situation at home, he can only succumb, do you want to be like him, you can't be a leader in your life, and you can't get famous? When you were a child, didn't you have the ambition to be a green cloud? ”
Luo Mingmin looked away a little uncomfortably, of course he was unwilling to be a spy who couldn't see the light for the rest of his life, but what could he do? There is no better candidate in the family to inherit this unique "ancestral business".
Mrs. Zhongli slowed down her expression and persuaded, "You have exposed your identity in front of Liu Yiren and Miss Jiang today, although it is because you are not defensive against them, but it also shows that you are not cautious and careful enough. With such shortcomings, if you want to work hard in the General Administration Department in the future, you may not be able to get ahead in ten or eight years. Do you really imagine Ling Zun working under the ground for the rest of his life? You are a young man who is both civil and military, and since you have entered the General Administration, it is better to simply be a wise person, even if you are just a first-class sesame official, it is better than only acting in secret for the rest of your life. With an identity, you and Miss Jiang will be a match. Don't say that you are unintentional, if you are unintentional, what are you so worried about what Lord Jiang is doing? ”
Luo Mingmin was stunned, and after thinking for a while, he smiled bitterly: "Your words are certainly for my good, but where can I do this kind of thing if I want to?" None of the brothers in the division want to be Mingren, but that's not just lip service. It is necessary not only to have merit, but also to have merit. I'm just white. With such a me, how easy is it to climb the daughter of other people's official eunuchs? You don't have to say it anymore, it's not a gentleman's move for us to talk about Miss Boudoir behind our backs. With that, he lifted his feet and left, but his steps were much slower than usual.
Mrs. Zhongli didn't stop him, she could see that her words were not useless, Luo Mingmin must have listened to it, and what happened next depended on his intentions. However, she still really wants to match Luo Mingmin and Jiang Yao, it is rare that the two have the same temperament, and Jiang Yao is a smart and refreshing girl. Just watched the two of them agree on things sentence by sentence, and she seemed to see her husband and herself ...... when she was young. . .
